DIR. GATLlNG'S NEW GUN.

A Weapon for Public Use That Would Deci-
mate a Mob in Two Minutes
DR.. R. j. Calling, the inventor of the
famous gun which bears his name, has
invented another instrument of destruc-
ton which he calls the "police gum" 1t
was on exhibition Friday at No. 10 Maid
en- lane says The New York Tribune, and
an interested group of army officers and
newspaper men studied its mechan-
ism and listened to the inventors ex-
plantations of its virtues, 1t is a brass
gun, weighing rs pounds, and is mounted
on a tripod, the whole arrangement
weighing only 149 pounds. It is capable
of firing 1000 shots a minute.
The general working principle of the
gun is the same as that of the gun which
bears DR.. Gatling's name and is so widely
known. The improvement is in the
method of feeding. In the police gun a
magazine, holding 62 cartridges and look
ing like the hopper of corn-sheller, is
set up on end at right angle on the top
of the brass barrel. The turning of the
handle by the cannoneer drops the car
tridges into six revolving barrels within
the cannon.
AS the barrels revolve a lock with a
spiral spring catches each cartridge and
a small needle in the lock strikes the per-
cussion cap, exploding it. The next in
slant an extractor catches the empty
she'll, and following spiral groove, it is
dislodged from Che gun. When one
magazine is empty another stands ready
to take its place. AS the empty shells
fall in stream from the orifce, it looks
for all the world like a country corn-shel-
Ter with the denuded cobs dropping to
the floor as the farm hand turns the
crank. By long lever the cannoneer
can with his left hand change the range
of the gun, shoot up or down or sideways,
while with the right hand he turns the
crank that puts the stream of cartridges
in motion.
eve can clear the street of mob and
housetops as WE'LL" said DR.. Calling,
peaceful looking old gentleman, with
spectacles and snowy beard. "The gun
will kill man a mile off, though one
thousand yards is the best range. We
don't want to our cities overrun by
mob as was Pittsburgh. Why, 20 man
would stand in range of that gun. If he
he did he would be foolish, to say the
least"

WASHINGTON.

Mr.. CARLISLE expresses the opinion
that congress will not conclude its ses
sion before August.
INTERVIEWS with long list of congress
men and politicians on the place fol
holding the republican national conven-
ton result in the expression of decided
preferences for Chicago.
The financial statements of the treas
ury which meet the 5Oth congress on It's
assembling shew that for the first FIVE
months of the current fiscal year the re-
ceipts of the government have been more
than $11 100000 in excess of the receipts
during the corresponding five months OF
the corresponding year.
ACTING Commissioner Henderson, OF
the internal revenue bureau, has issued q
circular to collectors directing that SAM
pies of substances suspected of being
oleomargarine be sent to "Louis G. Star
kel M. D., analytical chemist, interal rev.
enue Office, Chicago, ILL.,"
The President on Tuesday appointed
George w. Parks, of Salt Lake City, to
be Receiver of Public Moneys at Salt
Lake City, Utah, vice II. G. Wallace, re-
signed, and Tom Wall, of Oshkosh. Wis,
to be special agent to make allotment OF
lands to Indians in severalty.
The first contest in the Senate will be
over the confirmation of the so-called
Fishery Commissioners. Senators of
both parties are preparing for this con-
test, the calculation being that it will be
one OF the most interesting that has oc-
CURED in the Senate for many years.
The women clerks in the departments
are in state of Indignation over an in
terview with Mr.. Oberly, published in a
New York paper. In the publication no
name was mentioned-the person inter
viewed was simply referred to as civil
service commissioner but the culprit
was Mr.. Oberly, and the subject was the
preference officials have for men over
women clerks.
The revenues Of the government from
all sources during the month of Novem-
Der amounted to about $50, 100000, being
an average of little more than 81 ,OOO,-
600 day. The disbursements during the
month were unusually heavy, and nearly
equaled the receipts. Over $18,OOO0OO
was paid out on account of pensions. It
is estim ated at the treasury department.
that there has been an increase of nearly
million dollars in the public debt dur
ing November

To say that our civilization is in its
foundations an industrial ore is tanta-
mount to saying that security of life and
property and the conservation of social
order are now, even more than in other
stages of the progress of the race, the
prime requisites of advance or even of
tolerable existence. In this view, of
course, there can be no enemies of society
so dangerous as those who plant them
selves upon the baneful and abhorrent
doctrine of anarchy-the doctrine which
bases itself upon the negation of all law.
These people form a class with which So
ciety can find no modus vlvendi. The
success of their doctrines would destroy
society; the victory of society means the
humiliation of their doctrines. When
as in the case of the unhappy men who
paid the penalty of their crimes at Chi
sago their principles of antagonism to
social order find issue in overt acts, the
time is at hand for swift and stern re-
preston. Considerations such as these
illustrate the importance and the necessi-
ty of such solemn assertion of the su-
premacy of the law as was made In the ex-
ecution of the anarchists. These consi0-
eragions should not be lost sight of by
American workingmen who should be
quick to repudiate the connection which
the followers of the red flag have sought
to establish between labor and anarchy
The working classes have, man for man.
more to lose and lass to gain through So
cial and Industrial disturbance than any
other portion of the people.

degree. Several negroes came into town

passed out without molestation. There
are seven strikers in jail, but as they have
not heretofore been recognized as leaders
no trouble is anticipated on their &C
count. DIR. John Gazzo, the coroner, re-
ports only seven deaths as the result of
the recent riot. He says, however, that
